<VV> Back to Engine Shop

[Matt Nall]

the engine 
began making a strange noise and wanting to stall out at idle. The Temp/Press 
light also came on when running less than about 1000-2000 rpms. A local mechanic 
believes it to be a failed camshaft bearing based on how it sounds. At any rate, 
it's going onto a trailer Mon. morning for the two-hour ride to the shop where 
it was last worked on and assembled. Then it was out of the car and was never 
run before I installed it and got it up and running. Time will tell if it gets 
fixed under warranty or if I pay through the nose, again. I'll keep you posted.

 Be Wary!!  There are NO Camshaft bearings in a Corvair!  I'll bet you dropped a valve seat..
